Sparklers not included but you get the idea. Here’s the menu for our special Fourth of July edition of our Clover at Home Meal Boxes. Order by Tuesday at 5pm for distribution on Thursday… Read More
17 June, 2020: We have a big kitchen that just got started up again. We want to use it to make food for people in our community dealing with food insecurity. Stacia did some research and connected with Food For Free, they’re our neighbors at the HUB and have been doing food rescue work since the ’80s. The way we’re… Read More
11 March, 2020: “Do you think we could pull off a jerk sandwich?” Chris wondered aloud in the car ride back from New York. This was back in September I think. Chris loves the flavors of jerk rubs—the Jamaican spice mixes that are used to rub meat before smoking them. And we’ve never played around with the wide and delicious… Read More
6 March, 2020: What is a farmshare? A farmshare is a box of veggies, or fruit, or mushrooms, or FOREST edibles (more on that in a future post). But it’s far more than that. A farmshare is a partnership between you and a farmer. You pay money in the spring, they use that money to grow food, you get a… Read More
5 March, 2020: I love George Howell’s new vans. It’s like a coffee bag on the go! We spotted this one zipping around Cambridge from the backseat of Ayr’s car the other day. It made me crave a cup of Montecarlos. We’re getting new resupply vans at Clover and I think we’re going to move away from our all-white. The… Read More

19 February, 2020: (Update – as of Feb 20, 9am – our Kendall Square restaurant is back open!! Thanks to everyone for their patience!) There’s a lot of construction going on in the Google building. It was 12:15pm when there was a power surge and the fire alarm system sprung into action. Which meant sprinklers. In our kitchen. At the… Read More
19 February, 2020: A new sandwich just started testing today at CloverKND. Chipotle mayo, cornmeal-battered crimini mushrooms, cabbage slaw, and a cilantro pesto that we all went wild for. The sandwich is from Jenny, an assistant manager in our kitchen who brought it to Food Dev recently. It’s based on the Baja-style fish tacos she loves to make at home.… Read More
13 February, 2020: If you’ve been to Food Dev, chances are you’ve seen Chris Strange (last name used to distinguish him from Chris Anderson) sharing a food memory that he’s turned into a Clover sandwich idea. Most ideas we taste at Food Dev do not make it out of the Dev process, but Chris has been on fire lately! First… Read More
10 February, 2020: Derek Anderson is responsible for roasting that beautiful Anaerobic Honey coffee from Ethiopia that a bunch of you have been sipping this past week.
